Romesh Ranganathan to Host Art Attack Reboot

The iconic children's TV show Art Attack, which aired from 1990 to 2007, is set to return with comedian Romesh Ranganathan as the new host, marking a significant shift from its original presenter, Neil Buchanan. Ranganathan's production company, Ranga Bee, aims to create a 'modern-day interpretation' of the beloved program, which will likely be aired on CBBC. Filming for the reboot is scheduled to start next month, with a potential broadcast as early as next year. Despite Ranganathan's lack of a strong artistic reputation, he hopes to pass on the joy of the show to the next generation. Buchanan, who faced rumors of being the elusive street artist Banksy, has publicly denied these claims. The original show remains a nostalgic favorite for many who grew up watching it during its 17-year run.
